Rolando Romero vs Manuel Jaimes Highlights | Canelo Berlanga Undercard

Rolly Romero bounced back from defeat tonight, returning to action with a 10-round unanimous decision win over Manuel Jaimes to kick off the Canelo vs Berlanga pay-per-view card in Las Vegas. Romero (16-2, 13 KO) took the fight on scores of 99-91 from all three judges, never facing any serious push-back from Jaimes (16-2-1, 11 KO), who was seen as a live dog coming into the fight but never much fought like one. Jaimes, 24, was stepping up in level a bit and certainly in spotlight against the 28-year-old Romero, who still manages to draw massive attention as one of boxing’s modern villains, a guy people will pay to see even if they’re paying to see him lose. Romero arguably showed a bit of improvement in this fight, at least a bit more defensively responsible, but it was also a fairly dull affair where nobody really took too much initiative or stepped on the gas, other than Romero fighting a bit harder in the eighth round than he had for much of the rest of the bout.
